Hello everyone,I am on Windows XP SP2 and I have a regular ADSL connection with 10 Mbit download and 1 Mbit upload.I have noticed a strange thing, whenever i am uploading something using full 1 Mbit speed, it becomes impossible to continue using internet and browse web pages, sites are loading very slow.

Seems like the bandwidth used for uploading somehow affects the download bandwidth, bit i don't get how is one connected to the other?

May be there is some wrong setting in my modem?

Has anyone encountered an issue like that? Is there a solution?

Thank you.

It could be a memory problem, not a connection problem. Watch the processes in the task manager.
